I found this really cool theatre group via Deaf Digest (www.deafdigest.com). Nalaga’at, “do touch,” is a theatre group of 12 people who have Usher’s syndrome. (Those who have Usher’s tend to be blind and deaf.) They are based in Jerusalem, and have already traveled around the world. Their current performance is called “Light is heard in Zig Zag,” and their upcoming Carabet style performance, “Not on Bread Alone.” There is a short video clip and some pictures on their website. When they come back to the states, I’m going to see this wonderful group. I advise you to do the same.
